Who qualifies

Hi-Doctor provides consultations for adult patients experiencing mild to moderate facial or body acne. You are eligible to apply if you meet the following clinical criteria:

Editorial still life illustrating Who qualifies
Who qualifies
  • You are an adult dealing with persistent comedones, papules, or pustules.
  • You can provide clear photographs of your skin for clinical evaluation.
  • You are seeking topical dermatological care rather than systemic oral drugs.

Hi-Doctor provides topical treatments only. We do not prescribe oral isotretinoin, oral spironolactone, or oral antibiotics online. Patients with severe nodulocystic acne, deep scarring, or extensive lesions require in-person dermatological management and will be referred to local clinics.

What Differin actually does

Differin contains adapalene 0.1%, a third-generation topical retinoid designed to bind selectively to retinoic acid receptors in the skin. It accelerates cellular turnover, normalises desquamation inside the follicle, and prevents microcomedones from forming.

Hi-Doctor's clinical formulary does not prescribe adapalene alone. Instead, our doctors prescribe the enhanced combination of adapalene 0.1% paired with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (the clinical formulation found in Epiduo and Acniduo). Adding benzoyl peroxide introduces powerful antimicrobial activity against Cutibacterium acnes without the risk of bacterial resistance associated with topical antibiotics.

Retinoid purging commonly occurs between weeks 2 and 6 as microcomedones surface; meaningful clinical improvement is evaluated at 12 weeks.

Other topical treatments our doctors may prescribe depending on your skin assessment include azelaic acid 15% gel (ideal for sensitive or darker skin phototypes with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) and clindamycin 1% + benzoyl peroxide gel (capped at 12 weeks).

Side effects and when to stop

Topical retinoids and benzoyl peroxide alter skin barrier function during the initial adaptation phase. Knowing what to expect prevents premature discontinuation.

  • Expected adaptation reactions: Mild redness, peeling, dryness, and minor stinging during the first 2 to 4 weeks. These can be managed by applying a non-comedogenic moisturiser before the treatment.
  • Sun sensitivity: Retinoids increase photosensitivity. Daily application of broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen is essential.
  • Adverse reactions requiring cessation: Severe burning, facial swelling, hives, or intense contact dermatitis. Discontinue use immediately and contact a healthcare professional if these develop.

Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

No. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe adapalene 0.1% monotherapy. Our doctors prescribe adapalene 0.1% combined with benzoyl peroxide 2.5% because clinical evidence demonstrates superior efficacy against both inflammatory and comedonal lesions while preventing antibiotic resistance.
